Answer:
If a pitch vibrates at 880 cycles, the octave below would vibrate at 440 cycles.
Explanation:
Pitch of sound is defined as relative highest and the lowest point of sound. The pitch is dependent on frequency of vibration.
Octave is defined as a tone which is formed due to merging of two different tone. The resultant tone is merged so well that it sound like a single tone.
Thus, Number cycle in octave = [tex]\frac{number of cycles in a pitch}{2}[/tex]
Number cycle in octave = [tex]\frac{880}{2}[/tex]
Number cycle in octave = 440
Thus, If a pitch vibrates at 880 cycles, the octave below would vibrate at 440 cycles.
